I haven't really seen anything on it and I have been following SC as much as I can the past few months. I was wondering: Will jump drives/F
ives exist? How/when can they be used? Or will SC only feature a kind of point-to-point fast travel system?
So I booted up FTL for the first time tonight and shortly after steam went down. I sync'd my save to the cloud and when I restarted steam I began to play again. I just got a card drop and when I went to go see if it was a duplicate, I noticed that it says I have no card drops remaining. Surely F
ops more than 2 cards. Is there anyway I can fix this ? Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Thanks
hi gents, working on an assignment and I decided to create a blog about LoL. Just wrote something about elo hell and wanted to share it. Just my opinion about its existence. article

Pic]( [Blog post]( I got the Flames Of War Open Fire! box set as a gift a while back. Since then, I've read the excellent Chain Of Command WWII skirmish rules from Too Fat Lardies. They just appeal to me a lot more than then FoW rules do. So I going to use my FoW minis to play CoC. Also - [size comparison with 15mm Sci-Fi minis]( That's pretty much the
of the blog post, so if you looked at those 2 pics and read my summary above, you can skip the blog post. :)
Just what is the skin team working on lately? Back before we had 100 campions there would be a new champion every 2 weeks almost like clock work. That new champion, up until Varus, would have 2 release skins and there was regularly 2-3 other skins that would hit the store at the same time. Then, with Varus, they dropped it to one release skin with the champion with the idea being that they could do 2 "ok" skins or one "really good" skin. Results on that vary depending on your preferences (Elise for example is amazing, while I'm not so sold on Nami's skin being enough different. Kha'Zix doesn't count since his release skin was a 1350, though it is a cool skin.) Since then though skin production seems to have slowed down. We're down to a new champion a month instead of every 2 weeks, champions only get 1 new skin, and it is rare for there to be skins released with a champion. We have essentially, it seems, gone from 4-6 skins (including the base skin for the new champion, mind) every 2 weeks to maybe 3 a month. Now with the Harrowing we've gone from 4 new skins to 2, and both these skins aren't Legacy skins or otherwise special. They're just skins being released in turn with the Harrowing. So what are they working on? Certainly Riot doesn't have all their skin team folks working on the visual update skins (though, granted, champions like Garen and Sivir have a LOT of skins needing updates). It also seems strange considering that skin purchases seems to be Riot's primary income source considering skins are the only part of the game you need to drop RP to get. <b>
b> We seem to get a lot less skins now than we used to. What are the skins team working on? Also, I'm slightly disappointed we only get 2 harrowing skins, neither of which are "special or legacy" when we traditionally got 4, but that is beside the point.
Firstly, I agree with everyone, that hit was definitely not worthy of a fine. I do suspect that the league is paying more attention to Suh than it is to other players, and I do think that plays a part in a vicious cycle that is completely biased against him. Now that we've gotten that out of the way. Are we really so immature that we aren't even willing to LISTEN to opposing view points on the matter, regardless of how well thought out they are? Anyone who even hinted at questioning that it might have been an illegal hit got downvoted to oblivion. What the hell? We can't even have a healthy debate on the topic? What really set me off though was the treatment of /u/skepticismissurvival. [Holy shit, guys!]( I have never been embarrassed to be a Lions fan, through 0-16, through Millen, through everything. But damn, that was embarrassing. He's a mod on /r/nfl and he was just trying to point out the guidelines. It's not generally my thing to call out individual users, but /u/justhere4thedownvotes... What the hell were you thinking?! That's the most immature thing I think I've ever seen on /r/nfl. Grow the hell up man. Edit:
that was one hell of a circle-jerk.
I simply believe a diamond V player should not receive the same rewards as a diamond I player (call me greedy if you want). I'm sure everyone knows that the difference between the two mentioned ranks is not only the skill level, but the amount of work put in to achieving that high or higher of a rank. In other words I think it takes more work/effort to get to diamond 1, than diamond 5 or 4, so there should be some sort of compensation or extra reward for that extra amount of work you've done. It doesn't even have to be anything big, just an indicator that you finished at Diamond Division "x" or Bronze Division 4 in Teemo's Crusaders. The reward itself could be on the border trim on the loading screen or even on the reward/tier specific summoner icon you get for end of the season rewards. I think it's funny that there's literally no reward for getting a higher division in a tier other than self-accomplishment. How should someone that's diamond 5 be awarded the same EXACT rewards as someone that's diamond 1? If you think about, you can see that it's a bit unfair in a way. This could also give people that are content on eternally staying at division 5 or that have been boosted up there an incentive to move up; because realistically there's no point to move up unless you want to cross to the next tier because you will still get the SAME rewards no matter what division you end up in. I realize that this applies to diamond players more than bronze/silv/gold/plat players. Which, in the case of a diamond player, is pretty difficult considering the whole challenger ordeal is a huge mess, because moving up through d1 is extremely difficult(for normal solo q players). Downvote my opinion if you want, but I just think there should be some reward for that extra work put in to attaining a higher division. Edit:
there should be some reward for that extra work put in to attaining a higher division
Today has been 4 months since I became a Devilbro and even longer since I first lurked on the sub before our lovely mod Mr Mr a.k.a. /u/MrSumOne took over. I have had life problems this last year and ended a multi-year history of alcohol abuse and been sober the last 8 months. But through the hardest of times I had people to share my favorite addiction with that have became friends through our trials, tribulations and prayer that RNGesus would grant us our wishes and fork over those 1% drops to make that last piece of armor. So
thanks to all of you guys (and couple ladies) I have played with over the last 4 months. You've really kept my mind occupied during the worst of times for me and I look forward to many many mmmaaaannnnnyyyyy more hunts to come. Especially with MH4U right around the corner.
I've been lifting and exercising for over a year now. Lost a lot of weight, but I never got great results as far as muscle growth and tone. I'm chalking it up partially to that I don't have the right equipment at home and could never up my weights throughout the p90x and x3 programs. Shoulders were always done with 10lbs, arms were with 20lbs usually. So, I went to the gym today to try to up my weights and use the machines for back work outs. I'm still bad a pull ups so I use the weighted machines for that. Problem is, I found that I burned out pretty quick. Maybe I'm just having an off day but this sucked and was a shot to my ego. I guess the
question is, how do I up my weights without burning out half way through the workout?
Someone posted a few days back asking if anyone had experienced wet glue koosh darts. I don't know what seller they were talking about (I tried to find the thread and couldn't) but I received 200 darts a few weeks back from YuToys and today I just had a delivery of 200 darts from BeautifulWoman2012. I figured I'd compare the two and share my experience. My YuToys darts are all blue. They arrived quick and most of them are alright. They don't have heavy glue so they fly pretty straight. Some of the dart tips have come off and feel a bit wet and sticky. It is roughly one in 20. It's disappointing because if they keep falling apart at this rate I will burn through these rather quickly. The BeautifulWoman darts that arrived were forest green and black. Most of these darts are almost the opposite of YuToys. They've used too much glue. At times it is caked on the tips of the dart. None of them are wet. I don't them coming apart anytime soon but, because of this, they can fly wonky often. I can hit the target I'm aiming at way more often with the BW Green koosh than I can with the YuToys blue, I don't know maybe they fly farther... but, WOW when a BW Green koosh dart flies off target, I may as well be holding the blaster sideways. This doesn't bother me so much because we don't line up our sights so often in my house. We're usually just slinging a massive amount of foam and laughing. Now when I asked her to fill my order I asked for green and black. She sent me ALL forest green and one pack of black. I don't know why that was but I'm thankful for it because, HOLY CRAP do the black darts suck. I couldn't hit my target with any of them! They all fly off at weird angles or come up short. So the
version of this post is: YuToys darts right now: 1-20 have weird glue issues. BW2012 forest green: TONS of glue, don't always fly straight. BW2012 black: only received a few, they all sucked bad.
T'will be Waitangi Day tomorrow, not a cause for celebration for perhaps every Kiwi, but, still our national day nonetheless! Anyone want to get together tomorrow evening for some Tuatara APA? A couple of Yeastie Boys? Non-Kiwis also very welcome! For those not in the know, the

so what im asking is it true that all ex girlfriends come crawling back .
Thanks for all the support, last night was a hard one but I made it through it thanks to you guys. Hopefully tonight will be better. I have noticed that I feel more accomplished for smaller things and am more comfortable around girls. I feel some much more innocent and untainted. I have notice that off of porn and fapping I see women and women and not boobs and butt. I don't constantly think about women's bodies. Sometime when It gets hard on day 2 i think "I'm so pathetic I can't last 2 days" but then i just think "I'm so good I can last more than 2 days"
thanks reddit I'm now on day 3 and feeling great.
Inspired by User LushVelvet's recent posts, I tried out the Limp clitty hypno ( and discovered it was great! It's one of the 1st times I've really felt in trance--videos just don't do it for me, and this woman actually uses hypnotization techniques, which was nice. I basically have been able to stay limp since I've been listening, if not quite 100% flaccid. The one problem? She makes you rub one out when you come out of trance. Meant to get you used to cumming while limp (which was interesting in itself) but it's something I DON't want to do, and not just for sissy reasons, but health. I've found that abstaining from cumming increases my energy, focus, and for whatever reason inspires me to take better care of myself. There's pretty good science on this I think, testosterone needing to be replaced or something. So my dilemma: I love the state of arousal, bit if I get truly hard I'll going to rub one out. This makes limpclitty great, but then you rub one out anyway! This same person also has a hypno about not orgasming again, which I want to check out--but it is aimed MORE towards women and, again, I like arousal states so I don't exactly want to give those up. So basically, to
this thing, Any fellow gurls aware of a stay-limp hypno that doesn't make you cum at the end?
I have personally never fainted but my sister has on about three occasions. When we were younger and lived with our parents we would often smoke in our bathroom (the furthest from my parents room and easiest to air out) but it was so tiny usually one would sit on the toilet lid and one would stand. Well during one of our sister bonding times she took a big hit and while I (sitting on the toilet) concentrated on my hit, I see her wobble in my peripheral and look up to successfully catch her with one arm before her head made contact with the sink. Nothing is more terrifying than being at an [8] and coming up with scenarios on explaining how my sister passed out to my parents. After a couple shakes she wakes up and has no idea how she got to the floor and is not even at a [2]. I first thought it was lack of oxygen but on other occasions it happened after an exhale smoke/inhale air. Has anyone else experienced fainting? Why or what caused it in your opinion? (
sister fainted after smoking woke up fine, any similar experiences?)
Our church has been around for five years. In that time, not a single volunteer, including the pastor had been paid for their services excluding a temp position in the summer that we contract out. This is bad practice for the future of our church and I would like to start compensating our pastor for his work. He is bi-vocational and works very hard. I personally have just taken over as church treasurer, but this is my first rodeo so to speak. We are a very small church in a low income area and bring in about $2000 a month mostly from about 4 families from outside the area. We in nine can afford to give our pastor a proper salary, but I would like us to begin giving him something. $100 a month to be specific, just so that when the church does grow, we are prepared to increase that. So
how would you pay a pastor $100 a month? What do we need to do to make sure we do it right and not screw up the taxes and stuff?
Hey all, First off let's preface this whole thing with the following: I'm not here to hear about which branch I SHOULD go with, which branch is better, etc etc. I've been to a couple other forums and that's all I've gotten. So if you're Army, Navy, Marine, good on you, I'm going Air Force, let's pocket all that junk. The reason I'm here is to decide where I should put my goals over the next 8 months in body building. I've been on a a pretty linear bulk for the past 2 months and planned on running a bulk until later in this year. With all that being said, I recently decided to take a solid, determined step forward in my career and join the Air Force. So now I'm at a crossroads. Obviously I want to be in incredibly shape for BMT, however, I would like to continue bulking up and adding size. I graduated high school at 5'8" ~160lbs, 10-11% BF in 2010. I didn't get serious about lifting until about 3 years ago, and didn't have any good resources to know I was eating poorly until about 1.5 years ago. I'm currently 5'8" ~185, 13%BF so I've put on some mass, but I want to keep that ball rolling. So my
question: If I'm training to do well at basic training, should I continue my bulk until then, supplement in a BUNCH of cardio and BW exercises, cut up while I'm there, lose some muscle mass, and pick up where I left off before I left? Or rather should I go ahead and abandon bulking until I'm back and focus on training for the goals the USAF sets? I've heard from a few friends who have gone through basic that I will lose gains at BMT, so am I going to lose so much that it isn't even worth bulking until then? Additionally, I realize doing well physically at BMT isn't going to get me anywhere career wise, I'd just rather basic be relatively easy than daunting physically.
Hello /r/Christianity. I'm a Norwegian redditor and agnostic atheist who reads /r/Atheism, and I often notice is that people there (read: american atheists) talk about baptists, catholics, mormons and so on. Here in Norway nearly every christian is member of the state church, which I think is lutheran or something. The point is, I don't know what different "groups" (what is the right word anyway?) there are except the broadest definitions (protestant, catholic, orthodox), or what they stand for. For example, all I know about mormons is from that one South Park episode, and that's probably not the least biased source. I could probably find what I want on google/wikipedia, but then I would get too much information. I'd like a short,
style explanation of what makes christianity type X different from the others. Care to help?
Just because more people celebrate Christmas in a religious (Christian) fashion than most other western holidays with pagan/Christian roots, doesn't mean atheists should feel any more awkward celebrating it than any other secularized western cultural holiday. Do you ever hear atheists saying they should have a problem celebrating Halloween, St. Patrick's Day or New Year's Day? Well... Halloween β€” The very name of the holiday is a compound of " All Hallows Evening ", referring to the day before All Hallows Day, which is a Catholic feast that was moved from mid-May to November 1 in the Middle Ages by the Church, likely in an effort to co-opt the Celtic pagan holiday of Samhain which took place October 31. So not only is the term Halloween representative of a Catholic holiday, but neo-pagans still celebrate Halloween/Samhain in a religious fashion today, so why doesn't that stop atheists from celebrating Halloween? St. Patrick's Day β€” A Roman Catholic holiday celebrating the Christianization of Ireland. Seriously?!? Atheists make more of a fuss about celebrating Christmas than this holiday? But I still have nothing against celebrating St. Patrick's Day secularly, because that's what it's evolved to... a secular western holiday with Catholic roots. Just like Christmas/Halloween/Valentine's Day. New Year's Day β€” The reason we celebrate New Year's Day on January 1 is because Roman pagans believed that the god Janus, for whom January is named, [had two opposing faces]( and the mythology surrounding celebrating the arrival of Janus' month was that he was looking simultaneously back on the previous year and forward to the next. NOTE: In the Middle Ages, New Year's Day was changed in Christendom from January 1 to the supposed date of Jesus' conception, March 25. If this had stuck to the present day in the secular world, we'd be celebrating New Year's Day in March for that reason. So in conclusion (
almost all holidays have some religious background, and just because some (or many) religious people might still celebrate any one holiday religiously today doesn't mean atheists can't celebrate in secularly as part of western tradition without needing to feel guilty about it or rationalize it any more than anyone else.

Deepstrike was truly a terrible server for defiants. The ah prices are about 10-20x higher for everything and almost every guardian in wf's was r8. There were also no healers, every wf was 15 rogues, 13 of them mm. People on defiant side seemed to think the population was even, even though there were groups of 15-20 rank 8's that camped the pvp dailies every day. Got to sunrest and just got out of a library where I was topping charts and had a pocket healer (still in blues) and pvp was actually fun! I would have ended up lower since I'm only p2, but my sub ran out in the middle. After a few wf's that weren't r8 gankfests I was pretty happy. Only 20k prestige and lots of favor left for p3! cool story bro, etc,
never roll defiant on deepstrike, pve heroes in bg's ftw Here's hoping they hit MM and leave NB alone next patch Any pvpers in the reddit guild?
Is anyone else interested in the psychosocial appeal of Diablo? topic for discussion: why people find the narrative structure and happenings of the Diablo world appealing and compelling. not why experience points and achievements and lasers are cool. Here's my shot at Diablo Theory: As a result of the modern condition (which I characterize as being relatively anonymous, transient, and filled with intellectual/emotional ennui), we have a yearning to understand the history of our world. We feel, on a collective scale, sort of displaced, as our history is treated as a fixed entity tracing just towards the future. However, we know on some basic level that there has been much more to the world than what we experience in the modern world. In many ways I think this subliminal group mindset explains why we love Jurassic Park, Mummies, etc. But I think it's especially applicable to Diablo for two reasons. A: The dualistic nature of the game provides an excellent narrative for the history of our world. In seeing the world as containing explicitly good and evil elements (who are surprisingly human and emotional, but that is a [though very interesting] digression), we can categorize the way our world (not just Diablo) has come to be. Reason B really refers more to my first paragraph: Diablo allows reinterpretation of what little history we know. Such events in history as cannibalism, tribalism, egypt, mummies, tombs, kings, slaves, etc etc etc, all these very real events are recast into a dualistic mindset about what "really happened" in the history of the world. Magic is alive and animating all those countless people before us. It gives a moral and emotional framework for understanding who and what we are. This is just some random thoughts I've had while pondering the release of D3, I'm curious if anyone has additions or retractions :)

I've finally gotten around to initiating plans forcasual sex with a friend I've lusted over for a few months. He's 6' 2" around 300 lbs, and I'm 5' 7" and 130 lbs. He asked if I was into anything in particular, and I replied "anything pleasurable" and asked him the same question, to which he responded "eating girls out, feet, and ass."
hate my own feet, and don't know how to give a rimjob.
My xbox hasn't been in the best of health recently, with it failing to read games from time to time, I just thought it was getting old and would just have momentary lapses. That was til tonight, where during a game of FIFA, the game became unreadable. I thought nothing of it, the xbox had done it before and it was just a case of resetting and getting back on with things. Not this time. My console now refuses to read any disc whatsoever, I've done everything on the support site and still nothing. All this after drooling over the anticipation of getting my hands on Battlefield 3 this weekend (UK redditor here). So now my pre-ordered copy will come through my door and I'll have nothing to play it on. I would send it for repairs, but that's Β£62 for nearly a months wait. I might just try and find a cheap pre-owned console and see if that will tide me over til I can afford one of the newer xboxs. Overall though, :(
my xbox has died only a few days before launch (UK redditor)
I found this sub-reddit by clicking 'random' about 14 times... anyhoo.. i didn't start watching 'sunny' until it hit the networks (recently) as I do not have cable. Point: not a die-hard fan (yet) i live in the general proximity of the great city of brotherly love. my cousin (who lives on the other side of the state) comes for a visit. He want's to go visit Paddy's (being a die-hard fan). so i take him into Old City, and after 2 hours of walking around (Old City is not large), we finally track this place down. Why so hard to find? a) the place is only about 15 feet wide- about enough room for the bar, a row of stools, and a walking path behind b) 90% of the time, their sign is covered by a giant beer banner. it's a local dive bar and they do not like tourists this place is such a dive bar that there are ashtrays on the bar and the paint is peeling off the ceiling 3 layers deep. i love dive bars, so i loved the shit out of the place. cuz-o was a little disappointed though (i think he was expecting 'Cheers'). he did leave with an official 'paddy's' hoodie, though
up yours. i took the time to write it... you can spend 5 minutes reading it. it is fairly pointless and random, however that is all... carry on
